Yeah, I mentioned before that I'm considering going back to 7, or at the most
8.1 with Start Menu 8. I like to use by desktop running VM as a BBS host,
either as a backup for my BBS box or full-time, and I just don't have enough of
a comfort level in Windows 10 for various reasons, including its automatic
patching/rebooting.
